Best bi-wire speaker cables under $1000

Voodoo: I would pull the second set of speaker cables off of the speakers and take measurements with a single cable and jumpers hooked up. You can then hook things back up and take another set of readings with the complete bi-wire arrangement. I sincerely doubt that you'll see any major differences.

Other than that, it sounds like you might be running into some form of cancellation from room nodes. The spacing between 800 Hz and 2600 Hz almost equals a primary and a third harmonic, so that could be coming into play. Then again, you might have a node at 800 Hz and the 2600 Hz drop could be crossover related. Too many variables without knowing any of the specifics.

As to the RS meter, none of them are real accurate in stock form. I know nothing about the digital meter, as i've never used it or read about it, but you can probably find out how to correct a lot of the deficiencies of this unit at Eric Wallin's DIY Audio Website. Sean

Sean,

Thanks... That makes alot of sense... But before i pull the
bi-wire im going to set the test CD at 800 and move around
the room to see if it varies at all. It didnt even cross my
mind till you said room mode. Then if that doesnt make a
difference then i will pull the second set of wires and re-test.

I talked to Rives about the difference between RS Analog
and Digital SPL's.. he is more familiar with the Analog
but he felt the Digital is supposed to be closer to flat and doesnt require the adjusted tracks.. But if i had to
do over i would get the Analog and use the adjusted tracks
atleast they know how far off the Analog is.

Oh well live and learn... Thanks again.

Take a look at LAT-International SS-1000 at their website (www.latinternational.com). They take a long burn-in, but my, did they transform my system. I second the most enthusiastic review you'll finf on audioreview.com

What a great responce. Thanks to all. I need go through all the great responces. I left out that I have two sets of speakers. The main set is a pair of Revel F30 and the second is a pair of Harmon Kardon 50s. I have been trying to find out the name of the Canadian company that made the Harmon Kardon speakers but have never been able to find out.

I think that my system is lacking in detail.
